A quick look at the craft or time to work through a question. Tell us what interests you; we’ll confirm the session, price, and arrangements before you book.
About 5–15 minutes
Free to watch
See a piece come together, learn how permanent jewelry works, and ask the questions you’ve been curious about.

About 10–15 minutes
$10 per person
Curious about the equipment? Try a supervised session using designated practice materials before deciding what belongs in your own setup.
Available when we’re already set up at selected events or scheduled practice times, by arrangement. Includes a small allocation of designated practice materials. Hands-on use is supervised.
30 minutes
$35 · Individual session
Bring a technique or a question you want to work on. We can focus on setup, jump rings, welding technique, or troubleshooting.
One person, one focused topic, with individual guidance, use of our equipment, and standard practice materials.
60 minutes
$65 · Individual session
Get familiar with the process: equipment and setup, practice welds, jump-ring basics, and checking your work.
One person, with equipment orientation, standard practice materials, and guided practice. We introduce checking welds, materials, fitting, and questions as time allows; the scope is agreed before booking.
Practice uses designated materials. Standard practice materials are included in the listed in-person sessions. Finished jewelry is separate; the $25 jewelry-appointment reservation is a different service.
For event organizers & local businesses
A scheduled demonstration, an “Ask a Jewelry Artist” conversation, or a planned hands-on activity can add something memorable alongside our jewelry booth.
We’ll work through timing, space, staffing, and participation together so the activity fits your event and our jewelry service.
Free-to-watch demonstrations and organizer booking arrangements are different. We confirm any host fees or purchase commitments in your proposal.
A little shared know-how
Already making jewelry, or thinking about starting? Bring your questions. We welcome other artists and enjoy sharing what we’ve learned through our own work.
Ask about our Sunstone setup, including the Zapp Plus 2, or a focused session on technique, jump rings, materials, or troubleshooting.
Independent sessions from Starmarked Creations. Not official Sunstone training or certification.
Private Zoom sessions · By arrangement
Can’t join us in person? Ask about a private Zoom session to talk through your setup, review questions, or discuss a technique.
Remote sessions focus on discussion and visual review. They do not provide access to our equipment or replace supervised in-person practice.
$30 · Individual session
30 minutes
Ask about welder setup, finding suitable settings, electrodes and maintenance, jump-ring sizes and gauges, materials, weld checks, fitting, or repairs. We’ll agree on what fits the session and your experience.
Ideas for a gathering
Thinking of beads, pearls, bracelets, or a charm activity? Tell us what you’d like to make. We’ll discuss suitable projects, materials, group size, and pricing before confirming a workshop.
Ask about hosting an activity →Before we make plans
You can start with questions and curiosity. Tell us whether you’re new to permanent jewelry or already working so we can suggest a suitable session.
Hands-on equipment use is supervised and uses designated practice materials. It must be arranged with us; not every demonstration includes participant welding. We confirm participation requirements before booking.
That depends on the agreed activity. Equipment practice is different from making a finished piece to wear. We’ll confirm materials, what’s included, and any jewelry costs before you book.
At our Redlands office or selected events, by arrangement. Artists can also ask about a one-on-one Zoom session. Location, duration, availability, and price are confirmed individually.
Ask us about a scheduled demonstration or workshop. Share the date, location, and approximate attendance; we’ll discuss the format, space, staffing, participation details, and host arrangements.
Send a request below. We’ll agree on the topic, timing, price, materials, and any age, waiver, or other participation requirements before booking. An inquiry doesn’t reserve a place or collect payment.
Let’s talk it through
A question, a skill, or an idea for your gathering is enough to start. We’ll help you find the next step.
